Clearroll Privacy & Support

Clearroll is a photo clean-up app for iPhone and iPad. Your photos never leave your device. No accounts, no ads, no tracking.

Privacy policy

Last updated 6 November 2026

Clearroll is made by Shaheen Haroon. This policy explains what the app does with your information.

What Clearroll accesses

With your permission, Clearroll reads your photo library so it can show you your photos and videos one at a time. When you choose to delete items, Clearroll asks iOS to delete them, and iOS asks you to confirm first. Deleted items move to your Recently Deleted album, where they stay for 30 days.

What Clearroll stores

Your settings (such as vibration on or off and whether to skip favourites) and simple counts (how many photos you have cleared and an estimate of space freed) are saved on your device only. Image previews may be cached on your device so the app runs faster. None of this is sent anywhere.

What Clearroll does not do

We do not collect, upload, sell or share your photos or any personal information. Clearroll has no accounts, no advertising, no analytics and no tracking. We never see your photos.

Third parties

Clearroll does not send data to any third party. Apple handles app downloads and any purchases under its own privacy policy.

Children

Clearroll does not collect information from anyone, including children.

Your choices

You can change or remove Clearroll's photo access at any time in iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Photos > Clearroll. Deleting the app removes everything it stored on your device.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we will update the date at the top of this page.

Support

Common questions

I deleted a photo by mistake. Can I get it back?
Yes. Open the Photos app, go to Albums, then Recently Deleted. Items stay there for 30 days.

Why can't Clearroll see all my photos?
You may have given limited access. Go to iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Photos > Clearroll and choose Full Access.

Will Clearroll delete my favourites?
Not by default. "Skip favourited photos" is on when you first install the app.

Does Clearroll cost anything?
Clearroll is free to download with no subscription.
